[22 December, 2004] RAJYA SABHA the House Reassembled at Twenty [22 December, 2004] RAJYA SABHA The House reassembled at twenty-three minutes past two of the clock, THE DEPUTY CHAIRMAN in the Chair. THE APPROPRIATION (NO. 4) BILL, 2004 THE MINISTER OF FINANCE (SHRI P. CHIDAMBARAM): Sir, I beg to move: "That the Bill to authorise payment and appropriation of certain further sums from and out of the Consolidated Fund of India for the services of the financial year, 2004-05, as passed by the Lok Sabha, be taken into consideration". Sir, the Bill arises after the supplementary appropriations charged in the consolidated Fund of India and demands voted by the Lok Sabha. It is proposed to augment the sanctioned provision by Rs. 38,621.77 crore. Of course, I may straightway point out that the cash outgo is much smaller; the cash outgo is only about Rs. 5,000 crore. However, to the extent of Rs. 33,058.23 crore, the augmented provision is matched by savings of the concerned departments by enhanced receipts. In addition, token provision of Rs. 48 lakh is being sought, Rs. one lakh for each of 48 items of expenditure, enabling re-appropriation of savings in cases involving new service or new instrument of service. Hence, the net cash outgo involved in the proposal is only Rs. 5063 crores. Sir, I move that the Bill be considered. The question was proposed.

Sir, before I do so, I just take two points made by the hon. Member of the Opposition, who opened this debate, and he has mentioned about the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan. Sir, it is a common misconception in this House; this is a point that was made by his senior colleague, Dr. Murii Manohar Joshi also a few days ago, and I had occasion, then, to draw the attention of the House to the fact that this year, contrary to what is popularly believed, the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan has seen an unprecedented increase in the level of the budgetary support. The support for the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan had almost doubled, and the support for the Mid-Day Meals Scheme has more than doubled. This is being made possible because of the two per cent cess on tax is levied in the regular Budget, earlier this year. So, to argue that the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan is under-funded, in my view, is incorrect. Whether it is being properly implemented or not, or whether the State's matching contribution is being made by the States 231 RAJYA SABHA [22 December, 2004] like Madhya Pradesh or not, is a separate issue. But, I think, as far as the funding for the Sarva ShikshaAbhiyan is concerned, this should no longer be a matter of debate. Sir, the hon. Member has also raised the perennial issue, if I may say so, of the interlinking of rivers, on which we have had occasion to discuss it in the past. He has raised this issue. It is my considered view that the approach that the Government has taken is one of caution, as has been advocated in the Common Minimum Programme. I think, straight forward linking of rivers, as was mooted by the earlier Government, is fraught with grave ecological and social consequences, and it is best that we hasten slowly along the lines that the Minister for Water Resources outlined a few weeks ago. Sir, I would like to just make some four or five brief comments on the general background of the Appropriations Bill. I want to first make a few observations on the Mid-Year Review of the economy that was tabled in the Houses, last week, by the hon. Finance Minister. I want to talk about three or four specific commitments made in the Common Minimum Programme and draw the Finance Minister's attention to them. I also want to use this occasion to make a few comments on the amendments to the SARAFESI Act 2002 which, unfortunately, were approved in the Parlia-. ment, last week, without a debate. Fourth, I want to talk about some of the revival packages. This morning, you heard our colleagues from U.P. argu- ing for a revival package for U.P., and this is something that needs some comment. And fifth, I want to talk about the value Added Tax (VAT), which seems to be the cornerstone of the fiscal reforms strategy in the months to come. Sir, the first point is on the Mid-Year Review of the economy— this is, of course, in keeping with the Fiscal Responsibility and the Budget Management Act that was passed by the Parliament itself two years ago, that enjoins upon the Finance Ministers to come up with quarterly as- sessments of the performance of the economy. But, Sir, there are two or three important points which I want to make here. First, if you 190k at page 12 of the Mid-Year Review of the economy, the performance in the high- ways sector is a cause for some concern. It says here:— "The Golden Quadrilateral North-South and East-West projects involving a total length of 13,146 kilometres of highways, only 30 per cent has been completed so far." Worse, if I may add, contracts are yet to be awarded for 6,211 kilometres, making 47 per cent of the project. But this was a flagship project, 232 [22 December, 2004] RAJYA SABHA irrespective of whether it was a flagship project of the NDA or the UPA; that is immaterial. This is a project that is absolutely essential for the further development of the economy, and I believe that the slow rate of progress in this particular segment of the infrastructure project is a cause for some concern. I hope that the hon. Finance Minister will have an occasion to deal with this. Sir, I am, somewhat, intrigued that in the section of infrastructure, there is a complete silence on the modernisation of railways. The Railway Min- ister when he presented the Railwaty Budget, unveiled fairly ambitious plans for modernisation of the railways, involving gauge conversion, intro- duction of high speed locomotives, and so on.
